Well, if one is going to run 5 hours on a 150m track, a station to de-corticate the runner before-hand would obviously be necessary (to prevent psychosis). Oh wait, that's the Scientology part... :-) -Buck Jones

We are building a 150' radius indoor running track. The shell and core of this track is completed and we are starting on the planning of the interior build-out. Could you refer me to someone who can answer my questions regarding this track and making it an optimum facility. The types of questions I have are specifically: a) What is the ideal indoor running temperature? b) What type of ventilation is ideal for an indoor running track? c) What is the ideal slope, if any, on a circular running track? d) What other points do we need to take into account to make this an optimum facility where people can build up their muscels to the point where they can run 3 to 5 hours a day continuously (not fast but steady). Your assistance would be appreciated. Uli Huber Chief Design Engineer Church of Scientology, Clearwater
